The Country Club At Meadowlakes

The golf : Meadowlakes opened in 1974: a Leon Howard design that cuts through a pecan grove on the front and what seems like an ocean of water on the back, creating two totally different golf experiences.
Howard uncharacteristically left out water on the tight, pecan-lined front, with the wet stuff in play on only one hole. However this one pond plays a role in the best hole on the course, No. 4, which features a pond and waterfall in the landing area off the tee. No. 4 is rated as the most difficult.
The more open back nine is dominated by water. No. 10 starts off with a drive of 200-yards-plus over the pond fronting the tee. A small creek comes into play on the next three holes, which lead you to the other signature hole, No. 14. Water lines the left side of the 14th, and the approach is over a small pond.
If that’s not enough, the final three holes all feature water in play off the tee. No. 16 is a par 4, and No. 17 a longish par 3. Then the 18th, which plays about 540 yards, requires a solid tee shot to carry the pond, but can’t be too far because there are two more ponds that sit on each side of the dogleg. The approach is into an elevated green protected by mounding.
